M48A5 Patton and T95E6 Crews

WG, in the future could you take a look at the setup for each of these crews? Specifically, I found a glaring difference between the crew setup of the M48A5 Patton and T95E6. In the T95E6 the Tank Commander is also the Radioman but in the M48A5 Patton it is the Loader. Because of this, radioman perks are not interchangeable when using the T95E6 as a crew experience generating premium tank. Therefore, when interchanging a primary M48A5 Patton crew with the T95E6 all radioman perks and skills are disabled. It severely limits the interoperability of using this tank without a completely new crew or resetting the skills and perks to maximize efficiency.

Id very much like it if the T95E6's loader could pull radio op duties instead of the commander... that would be nice.

same thing happens when you try to take the AMX30B crew and put it in the tier 8 m4 Rev.

T54 crew to obj 907 also have this problem.

In regards to the bolded the T-54 is actually the odd one out in that entire line. T-44, T-62A, Obj. 140 and T-22sr. all have Commanders that double as radio ops just like the Obj. 907. It would be nice if the 54 was changed to amtch the entire line.

The Rev and AMX30s is also less than ideal, and seeing the Rev changed to match the AMXs would be nice.

WG attempts to use historically correct crews in all tanks (limited to no more than 6 crewmembers). There's nothing wrong with that.

They could forget about historical honesty and make every tank in the game from tier 1 thru 10 use exactly the same crew, C G D L, but that would be stupidity for the sake of dull sameness.

That's what I'm asking for though. In the T95E6 and the M48A5 Patton there is a Commander, Gunner, Driver, and Loader. The only difference is who runs the radio. After being in the Army for 21 years and understanding how a turret in a Tank work, the radios are behind the Commander and Loader. Therefore each could operate it, if were looking at a historically correct model. All I was asking for is to move the Radioman duties from the Commander (in the T95E6) to the Loader (in the M48A5 Patton) which will help game play and still keep historical reality if this is the key.

If you "understand how a tank turret works" then you should understand that there's a lot of sht in there. Just because the radio is in the back doesn't mean either man can use it efficiently.
